Stairs in Your Home

If there are stairs and not stair lifts in your house, you perhaps too have empty spaces under them which has to be occupied. When you're uncertain on what to do with the unoccupied area, you might be fascinated by the details thereafter. This space has so much potential and it can completely turn your room around by simply decorating under the stairs. Lots of homes built during the past would fill that empty space with a closet but currently, so much can be made out of it.

Whenever you're thinking of a place to go where no one seems to care about going there, under the stairs will be that place.

It can be an ideal seating under the stairs. You can make it look much like you would a window seat except you will need to add artificial lighting. You may probably ask another person to make a bench for you or maybe you can try making it on your own. It's also possible to place a pillow having a color that matches up with the rest of the room. The bench may also be available to place on pillows, blankets, etc. that are useless as of the moment.

On the walls, you could add a simple yet old fashioned looking wall lamp that can be moved around from side to side so you can adjust the lighting while you read a book. You want this light to be bright but not so over-powering. Just make the walls ordinary to look at. The less space you clutter up the better off your decor will be when you are decorating tiny spaces like these. Add a container on the floor beside the bench for containing magazines, books, and other reading stuffs. You will also want to place a small area rug in front of the bench. Cotton or round braided rugs are ideal. These rugs will complete this look and set the place to escape separated from the rest of the home.

Who couldn't use more cabinet space? Most of the time, stairs are located near the front door and when someone comes in, he/she would tend to leave his/her stuff considering that they'll just pick them back up then they come back down. Having more than one person in your home can make this a problem. You will require this extra storage space so that people can just leave behind their things before going upstairs. You may add decorations to your storage space that will suit best. Open and closed shelves as well as drawers are available to add more space whenever you need it.

If you may have stair lifts for disabled, that will be a very terrific idea.  Aside from any typical staircase, this one is very helpful.
